Yeh Busts Out the Check-Raise to Right the Ship

Level 27 : 150,000/300,000, 0 ante
Andrew Yeh
Andrew Yeh

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo

Andrew Yeh: {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}/{5-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Philip Long: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}/{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} - folded fifth street

Philip Long raised his wired aces and Andrew Yeh made the call with his five showing and two low cards in the hole.

Yeh checked when he found a fourth heart on fifth and Long bet his aces again. Yeh took the aggressive route with his low draw and flush draw and chose the check-raise option.

Long thought for a bit and folded what was currently the best hand, but was in lots of danger with all of Yeh's equity.

Philip Long
Philip Long

Andrew Yeh: {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}/{7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Spades}/{6-Diamonds}
Philip Long: {k-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}/{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}/{4-Spades}

Philip Long raised with split deuces and Andrew Yeh decided to play with three to a straight.

Yeh hit open sevens on fourth, but Long immediately hit two pair. Yeh bet his pair, but Long raised to two bets with his two pair. Yeh called.

On fifth, Yeh picked up an open-ended striaght draw, but even if that came in it wouldn't be good since Long made a full house on fifth. Long bet and Yeh called again.

On sixth, Yeh hit a king of his own. Long bet his full house and Yeh came along with another call.

On seventh, Yeh made sevens up. Long bet into the 2,490,000 million chip pot. Yeh thought for quite some time before making the call and shipping the massive pot to Long.

Yeh Concedes Lead to Chait

Level 27 : 150,000/300,000, 0 ante

Razz

Andrew Yeh: {7-}{5-} / {8-}{7-}{6-} folded on fifth
Craig Chait: {a-}{j-} / {5-}{4-}{7-}

Craig Chait completed with a five showing and had an ace-jack in the hole. Chait bet his open lead on fourth to earn a call and bet again on fifth to take it down right there, taking advantage of his superior board.

Andrew Yeh: {8-}{6-} / {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-} folded on fifth
Craig Chait: {a-}{q-} / {9-}{2-}{6-}

The very same procedure repeated in the next hand and Chait was all smiles after taking down the next pot and the lead from Yeh, who was toppled for the first time on this final day.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Craig Chait opened {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} from the button and only Philip Long made the call from the big blind with {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, giving both players two pair. Chait continued with a bet and Long only check-called.

The icy cold {4-Spades} hit the turn, giving both players a full house. Again Chait bet, and again Long just called.

On the {7-Diamonds} river, the same action played out, Long check-called one final bet and saw the bad news and Chait's full house took down the pot.

Small Pots in Three-Handed Play

Level 27 : 150,000/300,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

Andrew Yeh raised with the {a-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Craig Chait defended the {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to see a {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} flop, which was checked through. They checked the {2-Diamonds} turn and Chait bet the {q-Diamonds} river for Yeh to call and forfeit a portion of his stack to second-placed Chait.

Chait then forfeited a portion of his win when Yeh's {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flopped a flush draw and paired up on the turn to win the pot uncontested.

In the following hand, Chait raised the {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} on the button and Philip Long opted to defend {k-Clubs}{6-Hearts} in the big blind. Both checked the {j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop and Long hit the weaker kicker on the {6-Spades} turn, which he bet and Chait called.

The {5-Hearts} on the river was checked by the Brit and Chait checked behind to get shown the bad news.
